13th ANNUAL SOUTH ORANGE ROTARY 5K
THE EVENT
Great food and great fun after the 5K:
Now that’s something to run for. If you haven’t run the South Orange
Rotary 5K, you’re in for a treat. The course is scenic and fast; the
amenities first rate.
The course is run through the historic
village of South Orange and produced by the South Orange Rotary Club.
Located in the center of the village, race HQ is conveniently reached via
the Garden State Parkway, NJ Turnpike or Rt. 280.
So join us in South Orange for the
refreshments, the DJ, long-sleeve T-shirt and prizes. You get the picture
- a terrific race. And help the South Orange Rotary Club continue
its good work.

WHO BENEFITS?
For 79 years, the South Orange Rotary
Club has, through “Service Above Self”, provided financial assistance to
deserving local charitable causes and worldwide projects. Rotarians make a
strong commitment of time and energy thereby making a difference in
quality of life issues.
The 2007 major beneficiary is Gift of Life.
Gift of Life of New Jersey, Inc. is a non profit, tax-exempt corporation
administered by participating Rotary Clubs of New Jersey for the purpose
of providing open-heart surgery to needy children throughout the world.
Its mission is to save lives of underprivileged children afflicted with
life-threatening congenital heart defects. Children are either brought to
the United States for surgery, or teams of doctors and nurses travel to
other countries to perform surgeries and to teach surgical techniques to
local doctors.
At Gift of Life, Inc. we create smiles. From
countries all over the world we take children and young adults with heart
disease and mend broken hearts.
